Valentine’s Day is an occasion many of us dine out for an intimate evening and then maybe see a movie. Couples enjoy a delicious meal prepared for them and then relax with a movie at a theater.<\/p>\n
However, just because someone else cooked for you, doesn’t mean you can let your guard down when it comes to food safety. Don’t let food illness make the occasion memorable for the wrong reasons. Also, leftovers are only safe for 2 hours at room temperature and won\u2019t last through a movie.<\/p>\n
Food can get contaminated anywhere – so it’s important to always follow sound food safety practices – no matter who prepares the meal or where you eat.<\/p>\n
Bacteria grows rapidly between the temperatures of 40\u00b0F and 140\u00b0F.\u00a0 So, to prevent a foodborne illness, remember the two-hour rule.<\/p>\n
